That's true, but this van is the ultimate sleeper. Well, either this or a smart car... but I'd drive this van over a smart car any day.

The most important variable in all races resides in the driver’s seat.

Hah, I bet the van had to be gutted. Also, the ZR1 looks like it is using a more streetable tire than the van...

I checked out that ZR1 when I was at LPE. It looks stock. Until it is started up..!!! it's 1426 HP!!!

Full interior.. no body mods whatsoever. Absolute beast of a car.

I don't care if the van's ran 8 second quarter miles, the ZR-1 is a whole lot better looking.

And ditto on the 13 second ZR-1 quarter mile time, it sure looked like it was granny shifted out of the hole.
